Ubiquitous mental health support systems for managing long-term mental health illness

Objetivo

This fellowship is a significant step in Dr. Matthews’ career, bringing him back into full-time research leading an innovative project in e-mental health between Professor Gay’s lab in Cornell University and Dr. Doherty’s in Trinity College Dublin. The project will develop technologies to support individuals with bipolar disorder, an extremely challenging illness which has significant negative impacts on individuals, their families and societies. This project extends the EU’s E-Health initiative by applying ICT to the improvement of mental health.The candidate has an interdisciplinary background and his work to date in ubiquitous support systems provides a strong foundation to carry out the proposal and push this research area forward. Throughout Dr. Matthews’ career he has sought to identify areas for further personal development. His training objectives include establishing a full- time academic career, further developing interdisciplinary competencies and gaining commercialisation expertise. These goals will be met through formal courses and applied research. This fellowship represents Dr. Matthews’ 1st post-doctoral research position. At Cornell University, he will be able to work with world-class researchers in healthcare, social networks and bipolar disorder. Cornell and Trinity are among the best universities in the world and will provide the necessary materials, expertise and excellent support services to carry out this project. As an interdisciplinary project in a highly sensitive area, it will need experts in each field, all of whom have committed to this project.This fellowship is a vital step in establishing Dr. Matthews as a leading researcher in an emerging and increasingly important field. His ambition is to establish an interdisciplinary research centre for ICT & mental health. There is an opportunity to establish Europe as a world leader in this emerging area.
